Schools on Air

Your students can have their own radio show!

Schools on Air puts your class in charge of SYN Radio – broadcasting live across Melbourne on 90.7 FM/Digital Radio and the world at syn.org.au (With the best content featuring on the Best of Schools on Air podcast)

The program is flexible to the needs of your students and your curriculum. Our trainers are fun, supportive and focused on your students getting the most out of the experience.

Simonds Catholic College teacher Bart Sanciolo says SYN’s Schools on Air program has been one of the most popular activities for students over the past 6 years.

“I don’t know that there are really many other venues for students to experience the thrill of being on air and being part of a community,” says Sanciolo.

Hear from some students about their Schools on Air experience:

Schools on Air is available in 2 formats:

– A weekly show for a term (Ideal for large groups/classes and ongoing work)

– Live Radio Workshop (A special once off broadcast – Great for fun excursions/reflective practice/showcasing student work)

We provide fun intensive training to get your students ready for broadcast and support you and your students throughout the term.

SYN is a not for profit organisation. Fees are charged to cover the costs of the program, but we are happy to work with schools to source funding support.
